Published:14:47Monday 04 July 2016

Stagecoach buses have slightly amended proposals for changes in bus times which might affect readers in our area.

31/33 Arbroath (College) – Brechin - Laurencekirk: Due to changes in the requirement for college transport at Dundee &Angus College in Arbroath, it is proposed that services 31 and 33 will be merged to form a new service 33 linking Laurencekirk, Brechin and Montrose with the college.

39/39A Gauldry – Wormit – Newport – Dundee – Arbroath: Service 39 would be extended to also serve Newport, Wormit and Gauldry. The daytime frequency will remain as now, half hourly and some additional early morning and evening journeys will be introduced between Arbroath and Dundee.

Douglas Robertson, Commercial Director, Stagecoach East Scotland said: “We really appreciate the feedback we received. We have spent the last few weeks going through the feedback and making adjustments to our proposals where possible.”

Full timetables and online journey planning will be available by the end of July, with a start date for revised timetables of August 15, 2016.
